Creating a garden space that both you & your children will love can feel like a tough task, and with February half-term just around the corner, it's got us thinking of how we can achieve just that. Ample space for play, relaxation, dining, socialising and of course, stylish aesthetics for you, can all be accomplished with a bit of pre-planning and furniture-versatility.
Get the kids (and let's be honest, the grown-ups too!) out in the fresh air & creating memories this spring & summer - take a look at some of our family-friendly garden ideas below…
Family Dining
Sunny school holiday lunches and alfresco evenings with extended family - just two reasons why you need a designated dining space. It’s likely to be the area you’ll spend the biggest chunk of your quality-time together, so you’ll want to choose the perfect set for you and yours. For space-saving yet stylish versatility, we’d select the Sky Cubo 4 Seat Dining Set, which can sit up to 8 people when you factor in the super-comfy, tuck-away footstools.
Secure the Shade
A full family day enjoying your beautiful garden in the long-awaited sunshine, is certainly a day well spent, but don't forget to create a shaded sanctuary for a little respite from the afternoon sun. Our slick 3.5 Metre Garden Parasols come in beige, grey or black to suit your garden furniture’s style. Or, for a shaded space in luxurious comfort, take a look at our Toscana Daybed complete with stylish retractable hood.
Space Savers
If you’re a little short on space, stackable and dual-purpose furniture can be a godsend, particularly for families looking to switch-up their space day-to-day. A well designed family garden could be set up for socialising on a Saturday evening, and ready for activities with the kids come Sunday morning - it's all in your choice of furniture. For the best of multi-functionality, take a look at our VASE Bistro Stacking Set, the Encore 4 Seat Sofa and Double Sun Lounger Combo, or any of our compact Cube Dining Sets.
Snug Space
If you have small children, you’ll know how much time they love to spend on the floor - beautiful dining sets and cosy corner sofas often become obsolete in the minds of your imaginative little ones. With that in mind, why not create them a dedicated snug space with our brand-new selection of Outdoor Rugs, and some plush Outdoor Scatter Cushions to create a real den-like feel.
